manhattan, no word yet on whether that might be on the auction block for the former president will have to put up four and $54 million in six days to make good on money that he has to pay upfront in that fraud case back what is remarkable about this is donald trump has tried and stretched -- stretched far and wide to get some help on this but he is getting zero help on this. welcome everybody, i'm neil cavuto, this is your world." the score right now to eric showing outside the trump tower on the pickle he's in and help he needs. >> reporter: it is a pickle can a big pickle, $450 million worth and donald trump has six days as you say next monday, the coming monday is the deadline for him to come up with that billion-dollar -- half a billion dollar bond a potential -- or potentially lose this gleaming power behind me, trump tower. this of course all comes back to the case that was -- the civil fraud will -- in which a judge arthur engoron ruled that the former president and

the trump organization had to fork over the nearly half a million dollar wound in order to satisfy the judgement. the judge ruled that the former presidents and his company illegally overvalued his real estate assets get better loan rates. trump is now though asking a new york state appeals court to pause the judgement at least for now or cv will accept a lower bond off -- not 150 million but 100 million. the former president posted this on social -- through social, saying... [ text on screen ] if trump does not come up with a money attorney general letitia james who brought the case could freeze his bank accounts and also go after some of his real estate properties. her office with this... [ text on screen ]

but you know some lawyers we talked to say that the attorney general, well she simply could wait for trump's appeal process to play out. >> i think the more appropriate way for this to happen and that we require quite quickly that state attorney general's office act with some semblance of reasonableness and that is to make a deal where they allowed trump to use assets to secure the bond they're supposed to cash. >> reporter: you know,, neil they say cash is king your macros in this case it is. the insurance companies only accept crash -- cash will only accept cash collateral in mr trump's case and fairly recently doesn't have that and can get the bond is largely the approach 30 insurance companies to back that bond but all 30 said no. >> neil: thank you for that, eric sean. let's go to charlie as perino, who knows a lot about about the -- what can you tell us? >> couple of things from the trump land.

the continuing to talk to banks and insurance companies to try to get that bond, to get it at a reasonable amount of money that he could put u up. as of yet, none of his billionaire friends are pulling up money from what i understand. them and asking them, there's a lot of them. bernie marcus today, the former home depot -- home depot founder wrote an op-ed saying the country needs to rally around trump. out of now i don't think bernie's -- he's worth 6 billion and i don't think he's given any. >> martha: >> neil: what's behind the reluctance? >> is as of now, so let's s see. >> neil: are there for their own seat anytime soon the money if he succeeds on appeal? >> yeah. i mean there is one thing. i don't want to -- i want to speak for bernie marcus, that's for sure. but just generally, donald doesn't have a great record of paying back banks over the years and donald trump -- so, you know, you could sort of surmised from that what you will. but if you think about it he

has friends or did like steve schwartz from over black rock, he has palmed eric the hedge fund billionaire, i mentioned bernie, how -- holly lowe ohrenberger, you go down the list. you have to ask yourself whether or not teresa brooks now, you know, lending him some money and maybe there will -- >> neil: or maybe they're afraid of retribution from the attorney general's office -- >> there is a good point. although, you know, she wrote to the newark ag's office which has committed power because she has something known as the marriage act which can really go after a lot of businesses and the bar for intent is very low. so that is one thing but some of these folks don't have really a lot of business in new york. i mean how very low and berg does a masher or the other ones -- you know, bernie is essentially retired. so, you know, there is that issue. there's another issue here though and this could be really interesting. you know, trump's properties,

if you has to turn them over to her because he does not have the cash for a bond, are encumbered by a lot of weird stuff. partnerships, limited partnerships, you know, there is a thought here in trump land, let's give her the properties and let this genius figure it out, about unwinding these things and figuring out which part of these buildings is trump's and which part is a limited partnership that isn't trump and, you know, let's see if she can figure that out because you can't encumber the whole assets if there is partners. >> neil: but even if you could, doesn't it boomerang our new, you know, as you know corporate real estate in general and the city is in real hot water and rbc a fire sale, even a significant one of significant properties in his are among the most significant in the city, that that could do an enormous damage and take a bad situation real estate wires and make it even worse. if i'm new york mayor adams and panicking over that. >> is something about on your show on foxbusiness today.

i believe that mayor adams, "i don't think has an adversarial relationship with the newark ag letitia james, is going to tell her, you know, strike a deal. because of your literally dumping this much real estate in a market that is horrendous right now from what i understand, you know, commercial real estate is not doing that -- is not doing well and it's probably not going to do well for a long time. you are just really going to depress prices even more, is going to hurt his budget. but, you know, she might not care. let's be real clear here, letitia james ran on the notion of finding something to nail on donald trump. it is really -- i mean, for all intents and purposes in my view, this is something that each -- she should be discipline for. just think about it "like me and i'll find the crime on this guy, find something on this guy." and, you know, win she came up with was something p prepicky, you know, donald

bloviating in a blank -- bank lone application that had no material impact on the interest rate and everything else. they try to say that, e bank said no, georgia back which led the money said they did their own analysis don't care how he valued the assets. >> neil: bottom line, the worst -- scribblers and he was on the other side making sure they could get there and back of the bargain which they did so no harm know how. i don't know how this law came into being, it is what it is but what a soap opera. charlie -- >> monday will be a fun day. >> neil: indeed. the end of the that money is due. charlie gasparino. -- fox news legal editor can form a counselor to attorney general lebar. carey got a very good to have you. the significance of monday and what has to happen monday is what? >> i mean you have to provide this money somehow and, you know, neil it just shocks the conscience and i don't think you have to be a lawyer or businessperson to take a step back and say okay within

seconds, the law in new york has never in it's history been used against someone in this way. there were no victims, he paid back the loans and yet for blatant, political, partisan reasons, this man is about to crush financially. you have to like trump to just look at like -- of that and say this is unfair and unconcerned just as an american. if it happens to him, how it cannot happen -- company not having to be? >> neil: help me with the legal side of this. if he wins with -- on appeal and could have just thrown out that he's going to want to get his money back that he put up. it was based on the sale potentially of distressed properties at distressed prices. so, you know, just to get that back it might be coming back to him at a lot less than the money he put in. there is that real risk and i missed wondering to what end? >> so a real risk and his lawyers i think i'm making a very reasonable point when they say if you has to sell these buildings and he went on appeal and how does he get those buildings back? i don't think that you can. >> neil: and why so high?

in other words sometimes they have these types of restrictions if you're a flight risk or -- and it's apples and oranges but he certainly not that. is running for the highest office in the land. so i just wonder why the 100% of the ammonia you're being snapped at camping in the bond upfront. >> because the attorney general of new york wants to crush him. and i don't think that is rather, i don't think that is, you know, right wing red meat i think it's reality when we look at the facts here. because of your client it's not like the guy is going to feel -- leave the country. everyone knows who donald trump is, he's running for president. so there is no risk of him, you know, jumping ship and take his money with him and everyone knows where to find him. and so i think the court could work out a deal with him to put up some of the money or may be take his real estate as, you know, for the bond and things would be fair. and the fact that she is so determined to get this from him is a real abuse of the law. >> neil: you are an lawyer, and of a business nerd end i

mean, this has business and -- indications for the big apple. commercial real estate is in a world of hurt. if your mayor adams even -- two prominent democrats, you're nervous about the spillover effects of selling distressed properties under the stress market at distressed prices could add to the stress not only for the study financially but but the state financially. >> totally and it's only -- i'm a native new yorker and i'm thinking if i'm in business and amaryllis the developer white in the world what i want to do business in -- in new york at this point if the attorney general in new york state is willing to be is the law in this way? and i was talking to someone over the weekend not ndc garner in politics, a woman who owns an elder care agencies you me she liked trump and i said to her "okay and i said what you think about the case is about him just because that's what i'm interested in and she said immediately she said "they're not doing it to him, i doing it to us." and, you know, it got me thinking i think there are a lot of people out there who

are thinking look in the former leader of the free world, a rich and powerful man, can be potentially crushed in this way, what hope do i have? anything that is a real concern for americans weather republican or democrat and their being intellectually honest and you look at the situation in folding front of them. >> neil: and for the city itself, many who want to say all right, will offer donald trump, you might router the unit because of this real estate goes, so go on the value of other properties in and around the area. has an almost reversed -- repercussion the like of which i don't think the state attorney general, pleaded. but we'll follow it closely. so good to talk. >> to you thanks for having me. in the meantime are keeping and i not only are not -- what donald trump might or might not say about all of this, we could find out this very hour, but what also the president of the united states is doing or saying about this. he's on a campaign to her right now, the blitz is on out west and that is where jackie henrich is following the latest. >> reporter: neil, inflation continues to be one

of the president''s biggest challenges. 's been painting corporate greed as responsible for said -- stubbornly high pressure targeting people less back further back, painting really corporations of the bogeyman. really to blame for that. so in nevada he is going to be announcing some new initiatives to try to bring down a big driver of inflation, housing costs. we'll tell you the pitch that he is making and why it might not go anywhere coming up next.

[ ♪♪ ] going west -- for the president of the united states -- he's going out west right now on a three state blitz to try to get the word out. does he sensed momentum -- jackie -- jacqui henrich has more from las vegas. >> the president landed here in a state couple hours ago, he's going to speak later this afternoon just down the street from here and make this new push, this announcement really has to do with housing. overall inflation is coming down, but housing prices are continuing to stay high. in fact, last month housing accounted for two thirds of the country's annual inflation. so the president is launching this new initiative to try to bring on the cost of housing

for middle-class families and first-time homebuyers but congress is not likely to take up this legislation or any big legislative initiative in an election year. so the white house is getting republicans in their messaging on this as well. listen. >> the president's plan will build on efforts we have already taken to lower lowing -- lower housing costs by providing a $10,000, critics -- tax credit for first-time homebuyers, cracking down on corporate actions that ripoff renters, emmerik -- building or renovating more than 2 million homes. republicans in congress should pass the president's plan to lower housing costs rather than try to cut taxes for the healthy and large corporations. >> biden has long defended himself against criticism that his administration's spending flew -- you'll inflation. biden country that inflation is a -- with a war raging in europe but also he's also -- this is part of an effort to

explain a way stubbornly high prices which have driven his poor economic polling. poles which he also dism dismisses. >> president biden: by the waway i'm an impressionable -- [applause] >> president biden: the report on poles counselors for poles, were winning. okay? [cheering and applause] guess what? none of these poles mean a damn thing this early on. we just have to keep at it. >> but it is not all about a second term in gender here in nevada. biting is can read to frame the band -- november's trust as one between a good guy and a gay -- bad guy biden' campaign rejected that though. they replied saying that the voters take trump at his word

and they believe that it would continue to be the ca case. we expect that biden will likely make maga extremism a piece of his campaign remarks on his western swing. >> neil: don bolduc -- jacqui when he refers to these poles that he says he's winning, what poles are referring to god and not aware of them. >> if i have them i would put them on a screen. i don't. we often ask the president when he brings up these poles what he's referring to -- >> neil: thank you for that, tried it, sorry to -- interrupt you. today is the fourth primary, of course the race is all done right no but he's voting in palm beach. we expect him to make some remarks in florida of course he chased away all of the opponents and is just him right now. so this is -- kind of perfunctory here but he my comment on all these development concerning this bond and coming up with the amount of money he needs to

come up, the $454 million. florida has been a very rewarding state for him. he wanted not only last time in the general election by the time before that. and l florida over the years s become more and more of a red state, somewhat either -- even like to think a ruby red state. you will see again if he says anything coming out of there as he is on the verge of cementing the republican nomination moving on,'s focus on this he hasn't been all on joe biden and joe biden's focuses all been on donald trump. so if he comes out of there after voting and says anything will take you there. the hill editor-in-chief -- but the former presidents in the back of the matter is florida is friendly territory, has been friendly for him in the general election as well mark i suspect poles continue to show him doing just as well this go around maybe even better as he, you know, brings more hispanic latinos and other groups that traditionally have been searching for republicans by researching now.

what is your take on the sunshine state? >> i agree with you. as basically become a red state and democrats keep trying to take it back, whether that's house are specifically senate seats about winning state what is very demek -- difficult for the mcgrath know in florida. and this is an interesting spot for the former presidents. remember in 2016 and 2020 countdown in the polls most of the time, closed the distance couple of the big upset in 2016. know he's winning and when you talk about -- talking to jacqui and i don't know what polls the current president is looking at but he is -- there are seven battlegrounds and if you look at the averages from the surgeon desk, he's losing all of them. it's very close but he 0-7. >> neil: i want to ask you as well i don't know about these more recent poles which he is willing but i'm sure that they're out there, we'll see if we can produce them. but let me ask you a little bit, bob, about where the priest is in the president's advantage, in the presence

presidents. uas $54 million last month, something like that. and that's what donald trump is set to pay out in legal bills last year. so here's a distinct advantage, i believe 150 plus million dollars, cash on hand. you can do a lot of damage, out of -- a lot of campaign ads on that. i don't know how they will marshal that money but more is coming in. there is a distinct advantage for him. >> no doubt about it. it is a huge advantage for the presidents and the president does have some advantages. obviously abortion helped in the midterm, democrats where the red wave didn't really materialize. ivf is obviously related to that. so biden does have some advantages but at the same time, you know, sometimes he gets a little defensive about whether the economy order polls, embrace being an underdog is think about it will of -- what better way to go. but also acknowledge where is the -- and despite widespread praise and i thought it was a pretty good speech the state of the union he didn't get a bump from that so there is a concern for the white house.

>> neil: you always think of this speech, very few screw them up. but it does seem to be kind of short-lived. like if i have good show, is short lived. people forget about the next day, even my family. bob thank you for -- he probably heard it out there, afghanistan withdrawal here today what happened and why can't weather president could've done but didn't hearing from his top generals today, some embarrassing stuff being revealed in some tragic stuff as well.

a back room, 3-5 individuals are negotiating this and we are not seeing the tax. is the legislative leaders of the white house -- for all tell you what we are -- certainly the republicans are being clear that we want border security measures in place. the president will not use the discretion that he currently has to secure the border, you know, you can reinstate remain in mexico and catch and release, make adjustments to pearl and asylum. it is not going to use his discretion, we need to require him to do so and this is the only leverage we have is during this funding process. as you know james madison said we have the power of the per there was given to congress for a reason and is an attempt to be using it to try to get some concessions because we can continue down this unsustainable path with this unsecure border that is so dangerous that americans are dying, whether it be from fentanyl or violence or -- >> neil: no doubt, no doubt but it never gets solved, right and part of this package does include funding for the home security -- i understand your concern what

other details of your own purveyor but it keeps happening, congresswoman. what you tell the american people about this constant server -- charade where we grow up against a deadline covering the government to a break. he plays out like a cartoon. >> is just as frustrating for us. i mean what we should be doing is as we said working throughout the year, work together, the single upper -- single subject bills, 12 separate bills because of the leadership change we had in the house that became very problematic. but the truth is why would we give department of homeland security more money if all they are going to be doing with it is not secure the border and deport individuals that shouldn't be here and are dangerous but instead process people and release them into our interior regardless of whether the criminals are not? i mean our homeland's secretary basically issued a memo to the cvp agent saying crime alone if they are convicted of a crime, is not means to just deporting -- >> neil: disappointed in your speaker, do you blame him? >> well look at think things can be done better. let's see what happens in the

bulk of lessee when the final negotiation is. want to be able to read the bill before i say if i'm going to vote against it or for it. that's what i'm looking for anything that's what the american people want. to just want some sanity and common sense and to secure the border and end this madness congress. >> neil: woman, appreciate your time. in the meantime will give you an update on ev's. more reminders that these vehicles are just not that popular.

automakers to make more gas powered vehicles for a longer period of time. but environmental groups are also claiming victory today saying the transition to electric is well underway. this deal -- doe rule is separate from the epa rule we're expecting will be finally is tomorrow. that's what a lot of republicans refer to as the biden administration' ev mandate. the president' critics say most rules, today's and tomorrow's, force americans into expensive electric vehicles that are just don't want. >> every card or expressions in this country becomes more efficient every single year. to whether proposing after proposing actually something that i think could be more damaging to the environments because people are going to stay in cars longer and people are going to be purchasing used cars that aren't as efficient as new vehicles that are being sold at dealerships today. >> white house press carrier karine jean-pierre was actually if the scaled-back

at the state of the union saying he was going to have a come to meeting with netanyahu, and then chuck schumer's wholly inappropriate speech calling for a change is bad enough, but joe biden's endorsement of that, to say it was a good speech and it shared the concerns of many americans was really out-of-bounds. but you are right, neil, what if a member of the israeli -- gave a speech and said look, americans should remove joe biden from office, we have real questions about his mental competency and his support of israel or whatever reason they wanted to give. it would be wholly inappropriate, and i think it is, in this case. but beyond that, neil, i will share with you that the other thing the israelis are thinking, and i know this from talking to my former intelligence counterparts over there, why in the name of god's green earth with the israelis want to take foreign policy advice for a coherent strategy on this from the biden national security team. these are the guys that are the architects of the disaster in afghanistan, and with regard to

this issue, it was biden's national security advisor jake sullivan who said that things had never been quieter in the middle east just two weeks before the hamas attack on october the 7th. you know, the israelis look at it as, you know, joe biden and his team are the ones that have largely rebuilt the iranian economy, and as a result, hamas has blood and houthis are now -- >> neil: how would you advise, john? we don't have much time, i just want to get your take on expanding the campaign to rafah, the invasion the administration has warned against. seem to be on course to do just that. >> what do you think? yeah, the advice israel clear, neil. israel is our most important strategic ally in the most volatile region in the world. we do more with them than anyone else, we count on them for intelligence there. at what they have asked for in response to an attack where hamas is the bad guy, not israel, is to eliminate hamas,

get a return of the hostages, and make sure that gaza is never a threat to israel the existence. those are reasonable things, a d we should be wholeheartedly supporting them and that, and the problem, neil, is when we don't do that, the only thing that has worked in getting hostages back or putting pressure on his military pressure on hamas, that is the only thing they respond to so when you say you are going to take the foot off the gas on that, you make it easier for hamas and make it harder for israel to accomplish the goals that they are certainly entitled to accomplish. >> neil: all right, john, thank you very much. john ratcliffe, former national intelligence director. at the corner of wall and broad, the dow sword, nasdaq up, tomorrow the federal reserve announces its decision, not expected to move on rates, but much expected to possibly move the markets. here is "the five." ♪ ♪ >> jesse: hello, everybody
